A national Delphi consensus process was conducted to assess post-ACS management practices in France. This involved administration of a structured questionnaire to a panel of experts, aiming to evaluate current clinical practices and establish a unified approach.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Methods&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;The outcomes of the national consensus on post-ACS management were developed with the collective clinical expertise and real-world experience of a panel of French cardiologists. A two-day national face-to-face expert board was convened to identify challenges in post-ACS management and collaboratively develop solutions aimed at harmonizing clinical practices across France. Building upon the insights gathered during this board, a structured national survey was subsequently distributed to assess and further standardize these practices nationwide.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Results&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;A comprehensive post-ACS checklist proposes a structured pathway integrating hospital discharge protocols, scheduled follow-up appointments, secondary prevention treatments, rehabilitation planning, and a standardized discharge document for transmitting comprehensive patient information to ensure safe discharge from hospital. The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines for post-ACS care pathway management include in-hospital empowerment consultation by cardiologists and specialized nurses, scheduled appointments (4–6 weeks and 1-year with a cardiologist), intermediate follow-ups through calls or visits, cardiac rehabilitation planning, and coordinated communication among healthcare providers (utilizing digital tools and trained networks) to maintain consistent prevention messaging and enhance patient adherence. To warrant 100% review of post-ACS patients within 6 weeks post discharge, coordinated discharge planning, mandatory training for healthcare correspondents, streamlined appointment scheduling, patient education, and media engagement to facilitate effective follow-up care are necessary. The first post-ACS consultation encompasses a comprehensive approach, including disease history review, risk factor assessment, determination of the extent of coronary disease via angiography, clinical and laboratory evaluations, treatment optimization, lifestyle counseling, patient education on warning signs, psychosocial support, cardiac rehabilitation options, and follow-up planning, aimed at reducing recurrence risk and ensuring optimal patient care.

L’ECG met en évidence une onde epsilon et un aspect de bloc de branche droit incomplet (BBD) avec ondes T négatives de V1 à V4. La télémétrie montre des épisodes de tachycardies ventriculaires non soutenus. La coronarographie est normale. Le cathétérisme droit ne montre pas d’hypertension pulmonaire et l’angiographie du VD montre un aspect en pile d’assiettes. L’IRM cardiaque montre des zones dyskinétiques et anévrismales du VD avec des plages de rehaussements tardifs ventriculaires gauche et droite ainsi qu’un thrombus intra-VD. On note également la présence d’une dysfonction systolique du ventricule gauche (FEVG à 35%).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Alors que le diagnostic de cardiomyopathie arythmogène du ventricule droit (CVDA) est en train d’être posé devant 3 critères majeurs et 2 mineurs de la Task-Force&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, on note cependant plusieurs atypies dans le dossier. Premièrement, les troubles du rythme ventriculaire s’associent à des troubles de conductions (BAV 1 et BAV2 Mobitz 2 à la télémétrie). Deuxièmement, en IRM la paroi du VD n’est pas amincie et il existe un important œdème septal.
